Well... seeing as everybody else has updated their blog this past week, I guess it's now my turn too. I've been purposely avoiding blogging for the past while because I didn't feel like sharing what was going on. Here's what's up: I am still injured. My foot is not broken, but I've done big time nerve damage to it (changing foot biomechnics and footstrike from previous injury 2 years ago) and nerves take what feels like f o r e v e r to heal. As of this week I am trying a different approach/technique of physiotherapy and hoping that it might produce some results.
So with this going on, I have not been running, but rather once again have been water running. I am spending good quality time in the water working on my swimming and getting more confident on the bike. (Doing some group rides I tended to get dropped on the downhills!!) I am listening to coach Noa and thinking LONG TERM. I've got over the no-racing fact and I am accepting that I will be race ready for October and that's the best that I can do this year. It's all a learning process.
I had a great Canada Long weekend in Vancouver, probably one of the most relaxing times I've had since April. I'm back in the koots now and working the 9-5 and hoping to start enjoying the sunny weather (hint hint weather gods!)
Also, this is pretty amazing: God's Particle
Thanks for reading!
